  • Dr. Amith Sreekanth is a highly skilled liver and pancreas transplant surgeon in Old Airport Road. He is currently practising as a Consultant – HPB, Liver and Pancreas Transplant at Manipal Hospital Old Airport Road, bringing advanced expertise in complex hepatobiliary disease, pancreatic disorders, and multi-organ transplant care for adult and paediatric patients.

  • Dr. Amith Sreekanth has built his clinical foundation through a rigorous academic pathway and structured surgical training at some of the most respected institutions in India. He completed his MBBS, followed by MS and DNB in General Surgery, where he developed strong competence in core surgical principles, perioperative care, and emergency surgical management. His early training focused on developing precision in operative planning, anatomical understanding, and patient safety, which continue to shape his clinical approach today.

  • Seeking advanced subspecialty expertise, he pursued DrNB in Surgical Gastroenterology, a phase that refined his understanding of complex gastrointestinal, hepatobiliary, and pancreatic disease. This training provided structured exposure to advanced diagnostic evaluation, multidisciplinary case discussions, and high-risk surgical decision-making. He then underwent a dedicated Fellowship in HPB and Solid Abdominal Organ Transplant Surgery, with advanced training at premier centres including JIPMER, Nizam’s Institute of Medical Sciences, Gleneagles Hospital, and Nanavati Max Super-Speciality Hospital. He further enriched his expertise through focused observership in robotic HPB surgery at the Japanese Foundation for Cancer Research Hospital, Tokyo.

  • At Manipal Hospital Old Airport Road, Dr. Amith Sreekanth’s clinical role centres on comprehensive transplant consultations, pre-transplant evaluation, donor counselling, and long-term post-transplant follow-up. He evaluates patients with chronic liver disease, cirrhosis, biliary obstruction, pancreatic tumours, metabolic liver disorders, intestinal failure, and acute-on-chronic liver failure. His consultations are structured and methodical, with emphasis on accurate staging, transplant eligibility, graft selection, and risk stratification.

  • A major area of his expertise is living donor and deceased donor liver transplantation, including paediatric transplantation, monosegment and split liver grafts, and ABO-incompatible transplants. He carefully guides families through donor assessment, ethical counselling, immunological evaluation, and long-term transplant planning. Patients seeking the best liver transplant surgeon in Old Airport Road often consult him for complex transplant opinions and continuity of care. In addition to liver transplantation, Dr. Amith Sreekanth has advanced expertise in complex hepatopancreatobiliary surgery. His clinical work includes evaluation of periampullary tumours, pancreatic cancers, cholangiocarcinoma, and advanced liver tumours. He is actively involved in managing patients requiring major liver resections, pancreaticoduodenectomy, distal and total pancreatectomy, and complex biliary reconstructions. His focus remains on accurate diagnosis, multidisciplinary planning, and careful perioperative optimisation.

  • He also plays a key role in multi-organ transplantation, including simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplant, small intestine transplantation, and multivisceral transplantation. His consultations integrate surgical planning with hepatology, nephrology, anaesthesia, intensive care, and transplant coordination teams to ensure safe and ethical care pathways. Academically, Dr. Amith Sreekanth maintains a strong presence in clinical research and surgical education. He has authored multiple peer-reviewed publications in national and international journals and has presented at leading forums, including IASG, IHPBA, LTSI, Japanese Society of HPB Surgery, and Korean HBP Surgery Week. His research work spans pancreatic cancer staging, sepsis prediction models, biliary drainage outcomes, and transplant techniques. He has received multiple awards for best paper and poster presentations, reflecting the scientific quality of his work.

  • At Manipal Hospital Old Airport Road, Dr. Amith Sreekanth plays a central role in building advanced HPB and transplant services. He contributes to multidisciplinary transplant boards, protocol development, resident training, and quality improvement initiatives. His presence strengthens the hospital’s capacity to manage complex hepatobiliary and transplant cases with consistency and safety.
